The Black Hole of Spam


The Black Hole of Spam. Am I in there? Are you?

Just a quick cyberspace post today. Or a Blogland one, depending on your point of view.

Recently, I’ve left comments on a variety of blogs I follow, only to see my comment vanish before my very eyes.

Some of the blogs, quite possibly all of these, have their comments option set for moderation, which usually isn’t a problem as I know a reply will be along in due course… but lately I’ve noticed my comments haven’t been moderated (or unmoderated?) which has left me wondering if I’ve been thrust into the confines of hell known as the spam bin.

I’m aware folk may possibly just not want to reply to my comments, which is fine, but could I ask (kindly) that you check your spam comments in case I’m loitering there?

Thanking you hever so much!

Tell you what, there are some rather boring blog posts out in Blogland, but this one, I feel, must surely be this year’s prize holder.

I’d post the video of me tap dancing to make it more entertaining, but the video’s actually just as boring.

Sigh.

Ah well… it’s posted now!

      Thanks for checking, Paula. I think I’m OK with most of the blogs I visit, but there are some where I seem to have fallen off the Earth! ๐Ÿคฃ

      Thanks for checking, VK! ๐Ÿ™‚ It is a little odd how it only affects some comments though, and not all!

        As I mentioned before to you, I can’t like your comments on your site unless I comment as well. I have that at other sites as well. Just saying…Hope your spam black hole closes up ! VK

    The same “glitch” happens to me occasionally…and yes, with that in mind, checking periodically the spam file has became a routine.

      I check my spam folder frequently too, Nick. This glitch seems to happen in waves, doesn’t it?

        Do you want me to link your Six, Tom?

          Is the link live? I thought it was from Thursday… I lose track of days. I usually try to do it on Friday, but end up either completely forgetting or managing to get it in on Saturday! ๐Ÿคฃ I don’t mind you linking my six if you don’t mind doing it, but I think I’m getting better at it! (Famous last words!)
